It was in our lease to have the carpets cleaned, even though they werent cleaned before we moved in!!!! On our condition report we had stated there were huge stains on the carpet in one of the bedrooms, and after we got the carpets done - wa-la.. no stains!!!! Even the RE Agent noticed when she inspected the house!!! She had remembered the stains!! i made a sneer comment about how i dont think they were done before we moved in, and it would have been nice if they had of been lol!!!!
I think sadly that yes, you have to get them proffessionally done and show the receipt on your final inspection. It MAY be worth asking if the carpets are being ripped up- its worth a shot you never know. As for the slate, i dont know, about that. I do understand the bother of having to keep going back and do more things, we live over an hour away from where we moved and I made sure that I got the RE agent to inspect while i was there so if anything else needed doing, i was right there and i could do it!!!
Good luck!!! I hope you dont have to lose too much of your bond!!
